May You Run Away for Half Your Life and Still Be a Young Man When You Return (bilingual in Chinese and English)
by (u. S.) Judy Cyphers And Others
About This Novel
This book is a collection of original foreign micro-novel translations by Mr. Zhang Baihua, an experienced translator with an interesting translation style. From her several years of translation practice, she selected 36 humorous translations and published them in Chinese and English. Among them are "Enemy", "Animal School" and "Emotional Island" with profound meanings, "Deal" and "Love Potion" which are full of suspense, and there are also ironic "Women Need Wifes Too" and so on. These short and concise translations are thought-provoking and touching the soul. They are rare literary sketches. They allow us, living in the bustling world, to stop and think about issues such as hatred, emotion, education, value, appropriation and giving.

Why is it different?
I want wives
A wife is a nanny, a waiter, and a roundworm, but a wife can also be a person that a man is willing to do everything to protect. When two people love each other deeply, no one will give more and who will not give. In love, there are no boundaries, but please don't love too humblely.
May you walk out of half your life and come back as a young man
May you run away for half your life and come back still a young man
Such exquisite conception and unparalleled imagination are truly unbelievable.
The story reveals the helplessness of life and the sorrow of the weak. People who pursue happiness die on the way to find happiness one by one.
This is different, not what I want
What bullshit logic
It finally dawned on me... If you are passionately in love, it is clear at a glance...
